This example is from the sentence repeating task, where speakers had to repeat one and the same sentence ten times. Therefore, the vowels are maximally controlled for context. And, as can be read from Figure 7.4, the three speakers can be differentiated. Table 7.11 presents the results of the statistical analysis of several items from the sentence repeating task. p043 p126 p126 p126 p126 p126 p126 p126 p126 p126 p126

It becomes evident that the discriminatory power of F2 and F3 increase by adding the position within the sentence. Additionally, F2 and F3 discriminate unstressed vowels in every case, whereas, with the exception of the vowel /A/, F2 and F3 do not discriminate stressed vowels in two cases (sp012 and sp043 for the vowel /e/, and sp043 and sp126 for the vowel /i/). It can be concluded, therefore, that primarily the backgrounded parts of speech give some leeway for the introduction of speaker-specific traits. The more stressed a vowel is, the more speakers head towards a corporate (acoustic) output. Moreover, the results point to a thorough planning of the speech events, down to the lowest level of the phonetic output, because only by an exact planning of what one wants to say, can such high consistency with respect to context and position be achieved.
